Thanks so much for this nice comment we really appreciate it!
YES, all systems are usually involved, yet I had anaphylaxis shock and nearly died from an allergy to a long time proven safe pharmaceutical drug, dilantin.
It began as a rash on my chest - I was told, later. Then I lost consciousness. I was taken to 2 hospitals, expecting me to die in the 2nd one. I don't recall not breathing or swollen tongue.
I was awake and aware in the 1st hospital - something must have happened, again, because I didn't know why or how I got to the other hospital. I was placed unconscious in a room with an old woman dying. Her moans woke me up. Obviously, I survived, and was returned to the original rehab facility.
I'm sorry you went through this!!! I understand the fear you went through, this happened to me today from a b-12 shot , which I am so confused because I have had no issues in the past. I lost consciousness in the process of filling out my paper at the urgent care. I drove there and then took an ambulance to the hospital. I thought I was going to die. I remember my whole face was sweating and I could no longer t talk or hear people it was fading in and out. I kept asking them if I was going to survive. My blood pressure and oxygen levels dropped. They let me go after monitoring me for a few hours but I am still terrified. I'm happy you were released as well. I also had hives everywhere and my face turned red. I never experienced this and don't wish this on my worst enemy.
Grateful for your insight. Thank you !
You're welcome, thanks for watching!

It's lettuce, if I recall right.
